In Las Vegas, where the NBA Summer League is underway, history is being written, or almost. Last night, in the three-point contest of the WNBA All Star Game (the women’s pro league, ed), Sabrina Ionescu set the all-time points record with a simply monstrous performance. The New York Liberty guard made 25 baskets out of 27 overall shots (he missed the first shot and the last of the fourth cart) and scored 37 points out of 40 available: a new record for both men and women, given that Sabrina he crumbled the 31 recorded by Stephen Curry and Tyrese Haliburton.
The guard of clear Romanian origins, who grew up with the myth of Kobe Bryant and became a star with the Lady Ducks of Oregon University, after the error on the first pitch he hit 20 consecutive shots (another WNBA and NBA record), including the whole basket from “money ball” (the second) with the balls that counted doubles and also the two balls thrown from the so-called “starry range” (from farther than the line) that counted for triples.

“I will send the video of the final to my coach at the Liberty, Sandy Brondello, to force her to draw a few more patterns to free me from three-point shooting”, joked Sabrina Ionescu who has already sent 54 triples in the championship with New York nearly 45% (fourth best in the league).
Sabrina, who has always been poor Gigi Bryant’s idol and now testimonial of the Mamba Academy and Nike who has already dedicated a personalized shoe to her, drove social media crazy with her performance, including the NBA champions. “Ridiculous”, tweeted Steph Curry, “We may not see a performance like this again for a very long time. You are No. 1, Sabrina Ionescu”, tweeted Karl-Anthony Towns, “This is really a crazy video”, he comments instead the legendary Kevin Garnett.
Curry: “Who can stop me? Let’s hope we never find out”
